It sounds like the prolog/epilog solution will work fine for me, but I thought
I'd at least answer your questions, in case anything else came up.

We, for some reason, have ended up calling rescheduling "requeueing"
internally. The fact that rescheduling everything on a queue instance uses the
flag -rq doesn't help me think of it as rescheduling!

This is all in Python
def signalHandler(signum, frame):
print "Caught signal %d" % signum
import signal
for sig in range(16):
try:
signal.signal(sig, signalHandler)
print "Registered signal %d" % sig
except:
print "Invalid signal %d" % sig
This was to ensure that I caught any signal that might have come through.

I think that prolog/epilog will sort me out here, so I think I'll leave this as
it is, but thanks for the pointer.
